whether it is right or wrong, lawful or unlawful, to go with them, because not Jews, but uncircumcised Gentiles, laying aside all such Jewish scruples:

for I have sent them:

Acts 10:20 In-Context

18 had come to the door and had called the servant, and were asking, "Is Simon, surnamed Peter, staying here?"

19 And Peter was still earnestly thinking over the vision, when the Spirit said to him, "Three men are now inquiring for you.

20 Rise, go down, and go with them without any misgivings; for it is I who have sent them to you."

21 So Peter went down and said to the men, "I am the Simon you are inquiring for. What is the reason of your coming?"

22 Their reply was, "Cornelius, a Captain, an upright and God-fearing man, of whom the whole Jewish nation speaks well, has been divinely instructed by a holy angel to send for you to come to his house and listen to what you have to say."
